14.Almost every Chinese person can recite the two lines of the famous poem,"Every grain on the plate comes from hard work (谁知盘中餐,粒粒皆辛苦)."But sadly,many of us don't actually get the real meaning of these lines:Don't waste food.
A CCTV program,News One Plus One,reported that the food Chinese people throw away every year is much enough to feed 200 million people for a year
Do we have too much food?Of course not.According to the UN World Food Program,there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2013,especially in developing countries.Six million children die of hunger every year.
Chinese people are famous for being hospitable(好客的) and generous.Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food on the table.
Luckily,a number of people have got to know the importance of saving food.Last November,Li Hong,a waitress in a restaurant in Nanjing,got fired(解雇) because she took some leftover(剩余的) food home for her son.Many people stood by her and criticized(批评) the waste of food.

1.Do not order too much in a restaurant.Only order as mu ch as you want to eat.If you cannot eat all the food you ordered,take the rest of it home.
